The famous book tour starting from the Red House

Chapter 265
Neither Mu Xu nor Feng Ziying gave a specific response to Jia's mother's concerns. They only suggested that they wait for Jia Baoyu to wake up and ask how he was kidnapped. It would be great if they could provide some clues.

Declining the Jia family's persuasion, the two left the gate of Rongguo Mansion under the escort of Jia Lian. Feng Ziying looked back towards the direction of the inner house of Rong Mansion, frowned and said, "My lord, do you think Maitreya's sorcerer will still have Jia Baoyu's idea? They really just used him as Zhen Baoyu's substitute?"

Mu Xu gently stroked the soft mane of the horse under his crotch, and said aloud, "They may have other arrangements for Jia Baoyu before, but since the fact of the collusion between the Zhen family and the Maitreya Sect was exposed, this possibility has become very likely. It’s low. It’s like the reason why they kidnapped Jia Baoyu tonight was just to switch the two people’s identities, create the illusion that they failed to save people, and buy time to escape calmly.”

"In this way, it is very unlikely that the Maitreya Sect will find Jia Baoyu again." Feng Ziying made a judgment, and then said with some disappointment, "I was hoping to send someone to keep an eye on Jia Baoyu to see if there were any surprises. What I have gained, now it seems that I can only find a breakthrough from the thief caught last night."

"The top priority now is not with Jia Baoyu, but to find out the cult monsters hiding in the capital as soon as possible, and not let them escape from the city, otherwise it will be like letting the tiger go back to the mountain, and trying to catch them in the future will be tantamount to finding a needle in a haystack."

"Of course I know this, but the capital is so big and there are so many foreigners, I really don't have a clue at the moment."

"You do your best, and it's not like you have no direction at all. You can focus on the immigrants who came to Beijing recently. There are quite a few of them this time, and there must be a place to stay in the capital." While speaking, look When he had already exited Rongning Street, Mu Xu said, "Okay, let's leave now. If you have any clues about the alarm, please come and let me know."

Separated from Feng Ziying, Mu Xu rode straight towards the mansion on horseback. Due to floods in several places in the southern city tonight, the number of soldiers patrolling the night on the road increased in vain. After several waist badges, it was half an hour before he returned to the mansion.

At this point in time, everyone in the mansion has rested except for the gate and the night guards.Of course Mu Xu would not disturb Daiyu and the others, so he simply chose to spend half the night in the study.

At dawn the next day, he came out of his study room, first went to the school grounds to practice, and then went back to his room. Daiyu, who was dressing up, saw him coming in, still wearing the bunt for practicing, she couldn't help frowning and asked, " Didn't you say something happened last night, when did you come back?"

Mu Xu casually took the face towel from Xueyan, wiped the sweat from his forehead, and replied, "I came back around midnight, so I slept in the study for fear of disturbing you."

Hearing this answer, Daiyu immediately annoyed, "How can I be so delicate, if I come back late next time, I will go directly to the bedroom, but I am not allowed to go to the study, there is not even a soft couch, how can I rest well Woolen cloth!"

"Yes, I will follow Madam's orders."

"I'm serious, don't give me a hippie smile." Seeing that Mu Xu replied without thinking, Daiyu didn't know that this guy was perfunctory, so she immediately refused, and insisted on forcing him to promise himself Only then will we stop.

While the two were chatting and laughing, Daiyu suddenly saw the letter on the table and hurriedly said, "After you went out yesterday afternoon, I received a letter from my father from Liaodong. I put it on the table. You should read it quickly, so that you don't have to worry about it." An important matter was delayed."

"Where did so many important things come from? My father probably named the second child and the third child." Mu Xu walked to the table, took the letter and read it, but he only guessed half of the content correctly. Did name the grandkids, but said something else.Because the ninth day of June was the Empress Dowager's [-]th birthday, his mother left for Beijing the day after the letter was sent out to celebrate the Empress Dowager's birthday.

Mu Xu calculated the time silently in his heart, the courier who delivered the letter would not stop all the way, and it would probably be ten days and a half months faster than his mother's itinerary, which means that his mother should arrive in a few days.Seeing that Mu Xu was holding the letter without saying a word, Daiyu, who had finished dressing up, walked up to him curiously and asked, "But the name your father chose doesn't suit you?"

Mu Xu didn't say anything when he heard the words, and handed the letter to Daiyu, motioning her to read it by herself.Daiyu took it and only glanced at it for a few moments before she said puzzled, "Father's name is very good. Sister Jin's name is Xuan, and Brother An's name is Yang. The meanings are very good."

"Just look down."

After hearing this, Daiyu lowered her head to look again, and immediately said pleasantly, "Ah, mother is coming back, this is a great happy event." Compared with her father-in-law, who had only met once, Daiyu had a very good impression of her mother-in-law, Princess Changning In it, she seemed to be able to experience the long-lost maternal love again, so when she heard the news that her mother-in-law was coming back, she suddenly felt better, got up and walked out, and said, "I'm going to tell grandma the good news. By the way, clean up the mother's place."

Mu Xu grabbed Daiyu's hand and said speechlessly, "What are you in a hurry for? I just figured it out. Mother will not be able to arrive in Beijing for at least ten days. There is plenty of time. Let's have dinner first, and then tell grandma not to leave." Late."

After being reminded by Mu Xu, Daiyu also came back to her senses, and realized that she was a little impatient, so she changed her mind and said, "Then I'll go and see Brother Mao, you change your clothes first."

After they had dinner, Daiyu took her son to Concubine Zhang's place, while Mu Xu visited Baochai and Yinglian successively, cared about their health conditions, and told them the baby's name by the way.After coming out of Yinglian Courtyard, more than an hour passed, Mu Xu had nothing else to do, so he wanted to go to Xiuyiwei Yamen to see how the interrogation of the criminals arrested last night was going.

I didn't want to be stopped by Zijuan as soon as I reached the second gate, saying that Daiyu asked him to go back for something.He had no choice but to turn back, and as soon as he stepped into the door, he saw a pile of gifts on the ground in front of Daiyu, and asked curiously, "Who sent this?"

Daiyu replied, "This is a gift sent by my grandmother a while ago, saying that it is to thank you for your kindness last night. The person who came here talked endlessly, and I am still confused at this moment."

"So it's because of this, so you can keep it at ease." Mu Xu also had to sigh, if this mother of Jia was not partial, she would have more troubles than others in their family. Thank you for coming to the door, the worldly side is just right.

"Didn't you go to work last night, why did you help the Rongguo Mansion again?"

Since Daiyu asked, Mu Xu told the ins and outs of the matter. After hearing this, Daiyu really reacted the same as the people in Rongfu. She couldn't believe that there was such a coincidence in the world, "Even if they are twins, they are more or less different. So Zhen Baoyu really looks exactly like Second Brother Bao?"

Mu Xu saw that not only Daiyu, but also Zijuan and Xueyan were all curious, so he simply sat down, took this matter as a script, and after some processing by himself, he told them vividly. Several people were heard exclaiming incessantly.Finally, he answered Daiyu's question, "Speaking of which, this matter is indeed a bit strange. Although the Zhen family and the Jia family are old relatives, they have never intermarried for several generations. It stands to reason that the descendants of the two families cannot be similar. However, the fact is that not only do they look the same, but they even behave in the same way, which really makes people wonder why."

Mu Xu originally just told Daiyu and the others as a story, but who would have thought that Xueyan's next words would wake him up and enlighten him.It turned out that the girl Xueyan sighed inadvertently after hearing him finish, "When I was in Yangzhou before, I heard from a nanny in the house that there was a pair of sisters in their hometown who were married to different families, but the children they gave birth to were generally the same. When I heard it at the time, I thought it was a bit unbelievable, but I didn’t expect there to be something even stranger.”
